  • Chapter
Human and Animal Relationships

Part of the book series: The Mycota ((MYCOTA,volume 6))

Abstract

Over the past 20 years, aquatic-animal myco-pathogens have become the focus of considerable research attention. Some 500 papers have been published on these organisms, and it is widely accepted that they occur worldwide are often primary and devastating pathogens of micro- and macroinvertebrates, especially crustaceans, and fishes in freshwater, estuarine, and marine habitats. Important reviews of this literature include those of Amlacher (1965); Sindermann (1970); Unestam (1973); Mc Vicar (1977, 1979, 1980, 1981, 1982); Fisher et al. (1978); Kinne (1980, 1983, 1984); Neish and Hughes (1980); Wolke (1975); Lightner (1981); Alderman (1982a); Pickering and Willoughby (1982); Lauckner (1984); Sparks (1985); Alderman and Polglase (1986); Polglase et al. (1986); Porter (1986); Sindermann and Lightner (1988); Roberts (1989); Rand (1990).
